The truth of Scriptures is the Holy Word of God spoken first to Adam in the Garden and confirmed to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, We are all created  in the earthly reality of our being to recognize and praise God. God is portrayed as "jealous". 

He knows and is the only Being that exists of itself . The laws of the Cosmos are the never changing "code"that is integral to and inseparable from all material being. The greatest to smallest distances of time and space can never change. Mankind can observe them and understand how their being is organised but he can never control them.

God shares his being with mankind but limits our freedom within the vastness of the Universe to his will which wants only holiness for his children. He knows that human freedom is capable of great deeds within the Physical Universe but wants us to maintain our souls within the Holiness of Love.

We can do this only by accepting that our bodily and mental acts have to always remain within the limits of Love revealed on Sinai. Within the millions of seconds of earthly life that is our opportunity to know, love and serve, our souls have to know only Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and confirm this Faith by the deeds of our freedom that conform willingly to the will of God as revealed to Moses and fully realised by Jesus of Nazareth, Son of the Father, True God from True God, Begotten not Made, of one being with the Father through whom all things were made.

Jealous? Only that within the Glory of his being not one of us should destroy the rich soil that has been fertilized by the humility of so Glorious and Loving a Creator. God wants us to cling fast to him not because he is "Jealous" of any created being but because of his Love for us he cannot let us destroy our souls that are "Image and Likeness of himself, a Glorious Creation. God is total Mercy.

Dear Lord help me this day to be without sin and let my sorrow for all the sinful waste of your gift of life be sincere and never fading. May Mary whose faultless care of the baby that you were must have filled her soul with a unique Love pray with all Saints that your Loving Mercy break open the crusted top soil that keeps the seeds that you sow from entering so many hearts in this world.
